Sunscreen is the ultimate youth preserving product. Even if you are someone who stays in the shade you should still use some form of sunscreen. It will help prevent sunburn, lower risk of cancer and protect against premature aging. It can also prevent blotchy skin and reduce risk of hyperpigmentation and melasma. Additionally , it can stop skin condition flare ups. What's not to like. You can even now buy tinted variations that impart a radiant sunny glow. This is a must have product for me, as I am cursed with pale Celtic skin.

Saie Sunvisor Broad Spectrum SPF 35
Saie Sunvisor spf 35 and tinted is my all time favourite sunscreen. Its infused with natural oils and hyaluronic acid and aloe to help impart hydration and keep the skin plump and smooth. Its very creamy going on but also sinks in so doesn't leave the skin greasy. My dry skin stays happy with this stuff. As I live in a very hot climate this is a super important product for me to never run out of. It also covers the important job of UVA and UVB protection as well.
Suntegrity 5-in-1 tinted SPF 30
Here is another sunscreen I always have on hand. This is the 5 in 1 which means it has the important UVA and UVB protection. Its a none-nano zinc oxide. Its specifically for the face and offers a creamy buttery kind of finish which I personally love for my dry skin. Its also great for sensitive skin. It has my favourite ingredients of hyaluronic acid and organic oils. You also have 4 shades to choose from. The really good thing I love about this brand apart from the protection it offers is that it feels wonderful on my skin. My skin feels really well moisturized and dewy and the colour I have looks very natural, it gives the no make-up make-up look that I love. This gives everything that I want from a facial sunscreen.
Ilia Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40: Shade Formosa
I really wanted to try this product and like it, as wow it covers all the bases. It's a non-nano zinc oxide SPF 40. It's a make up, skin serum and sunscreen. It has hyaluronic acid, niacinamide and squalene to hydrate, smooth and plump. I also counted 27 shades to pick from on amazon. Safe for sensitive skin and clean ingredients. It goes on like a lightweight oil and leaves a dewy clean finish. It gives me the no make-up look that I am always after. I will be keeping a bottle of this in my permanent collection.
Babo Daily Sheer tinted SPF 30
This is a good basic tinted sunscreen. There is only one colour option so limited in this aspect but it covers all the bases. Its a good clean formula and perfect for extra sensitive skin. Another plus is that it has hyaluronic acid and organic oils. The downside in comparison to the other sunscreens is that I find this one is quite thick, and doesn't sink in as well. I use this one for my long early morning walks.
